How does this differ from Sony Vegas Pro 9?

It makes better use of multiple processors & is 64 bit, so you don't have the 2Gb memory cap. Also, if you have a nVidia graphics card it can be set to also use the GPU when rendering. Vegas Pro 12 has more file formats it supports as well as support for HD & 3D video.

Vegas Movie 10 seems to be able to handle the files much better than premeire. I plan to write a review soon (just got back from Europe with tons of footage).

Actually, there is another difference that may or may not matter to the user. The flip ultra has a tripod insert in the bottom so that the user can be in the videos (or stills captured later on playback). I wish I would've waited to get the Ultra so I could more easily be in the family vacation videos by setting the flip up on the little tripod that's sold seperately.

A little update. I bought the camera and it indeed does not downconvert. I found it easy to edit and convert with Sony Vegas though and I am very pleased with the camera altogether.

I don't know about Vegas Pro, but Sony Vegas Movie Studio Platinum 9 certainly can. Since Vegas Pro is the far more expensive professional version of Vegas Movie Studio Platinum, it's hard to imagine that it can't also do this. You zoom in on video clips in exactly the same way as you do with still photos. Keep in mind that if you do this, you almost certainly want to deinterlace your video if it wasn't filmed in progressive mode. It's not a big deal, just something you need to keep in mind. However, if you intend to do this often, you might want to shoot your video in progressive mode to avoid the deinterlace process altogether.

Webcam is alright, it's not horrible so your face should show as long as there's light. Oh yess I'm usually using both sony vegas pro 11 and photoshop cs6 at the same time while browsing on chrome and some other mundane things with no problems. It has never crashed on me. I'd go as far as to say medium gaming. It can play skyrim flawlessly on medium settings. Actually it can run in ultra but whenever a dumb mage uses a lightning attack, fps drops to like 3 so I always keep it in medium lol. Yes it shows bluetooth in the network and sharing center, but I never use it so I'm not entirely sure if it's what you want. Hope this Helps Rina.

Mine did not come with Sony Vegas. I use Adobe Premiere CC. When you drag the AX100's native UHD file into a sequence, a dialogue box pops up and asks if you want to change the timeline to the clip's format. It edits fine in the resulting timeline, or I often use it in a Black Magic Design Intensity Pro 1080i 59.94i timeline at scaled.

Hey Josh,The image sensor in the two cameras is the same so low light performance will be the same as well. The major difference here is going to be the added xlr compatiblity and the handle/shotgun microphone atachment. As Michael stated, and these were differences that I didn't realize, There is an IR capability and different encoding format on the XA10. The IR capabilitys wouldn't apply to you because they wouldn't match the other shots, think of the green light video you see on tv. I don't know as though you would notice the different encoding format either, and likely whatever you use to edit/burn your video will encode the video upon output. So a bit more versatile but also a bit bulkier camera.Bryan Hey Josh,The image sensor in the two cameras is the same so low light performance will be the same as well.

There's a user review posted on head-fi forum saying that Sony confirmed the difference to be only cosmetics and packaging. I own the XB920 and have tried store demo of the X10, and I find the builds quality almost identical, indicating at least the shell/housing is the same.

Hello, I import 1080/60p video from my HDC-TM700K into Sony Vegas 9 on an older machine and it edits OK. You may need to pre-render short segments of video using (Shift+B) so that it plays back smooth in the preview window. 60p video is only really useful if you need to make crystal clear slow-motion videos, otherwise, it has to be converted to 30i as there is no medium to play it back at that quality. Blu-Ray can't use it.

This is different than the 920 in that it has the potential for higher definition video, but it also is very restricted in what software will accept & broadcast that potential. Whereas the 920 is rather plug-and-play, and comes with simple software for adjusting the image, the c930e does not come with any software, and is not useable with many common streaming softwares

I see that the VM pro is still available for $229 so I don't understand what you're talking about. Also, if you're interested in a video mic for your camcorder or DSLR camera, then you might consider the reasonably priced Videomic for $149. Seems like a good deal to me.

I had read on a blog post at logitech that there was a slight hardware change also but maybe not. I ended up buying what was called the quickcam pro at the logitech site because they had a 1/2 off dented box sale. The box wasn't even dented just a little dusty. Thanks for the responses.

I thought it recorded in MPEG4, but for me it didn't matter. I edit and render in MPEG4 with Sony Vegas anyway.

No, Both deliver video at 1080 progressive scan, so the video will be the same. I forgot to mention that the 3690 does provide Karaoke, if that is an issue,. Again not something I'd use

Check the compatibility chart at http://esupport.sony.com/US/perl/support-info.pl?&info_id=12&mdl=DSCTX1#m2 I think the HG is faster and supports 16GB and 32GB that is not supported by the standard Pro Duo.

The 920 uses a compression called H264 which in part of the webcam itself while the C910 does not compress but rather allows the CPU to do all the work. The result is the C910 puts a heavy load on the CPU while being used (this would only impact you if you're using an older computer that isn't QuadCore or similar). The C920 is supposedly capable of 1080p while the C910 is capable of 720p. Both models have Right Light. The last difference is the C910 uses 5 megapixels while the C920 uses 3 megapixels. Both work great so it's really a matter of personal preference and maybe cost. Hope that helps.
